The Tektronix TWD 120 Digitizer allows a Windows PC to be used as a digital storage oscilloscope. It is rated at 100 MHz, has two input channels and an external trigger input. It connects to the host PC via a SCSI bus.

The TWD 120 is about the size of a laptop, and was supplied with a soft case. It was intended to be used in conjunction with a laptop running Windows 3.1, and was apparently manufactured for GE for use by medical device field technicians.

The Adaptec ASPI SCSI driver is required for the software to communicate with the digitizer. SCSI configuration can be tricky.
